Bad plane textures

1) The original textures are large and need a lot of video RAM.

2) A user made a mod that lets us use scaled-down texture resolutions to improve frame rates.

3) People liked it but running mods is a bit iffy at the time due to the Steam anti-cheat protection, so they asked the developers to release a similar solution in an official patch.

4) Reduced texture sizes came in an official patch. Original is the best looking but needs the most performance from your PC and there are also high, medium and low quality options.

5) The selection of which textures to downsize is what's causing these problems. Along with the really big textures (buildings, ground, etc), a lot of small textures were also given low detail versions.

So, when you set texture resolution to anything lower than original, these textures also get downgraded and it makes inscriptions blurry and hard to read.

This also happens in some of the bombsights. I guess that the smaller textures could be kept at the original size, but i'm not sure if they are really separate ones or they are embedded into the rest of the model (which would make it impossible to individually change them back to high resolution).

Yes, i changed textures back to "original" and skins are good now, thought they still could be littlebit better...
